On Czech news, they were interviewing a neighbor of the perp in the Nice attack, and she was saying (and I’m paraphrasing here) that he was distinctly unusual and quite unfriendly towards his neighbors. He wouldn’t open the door for anyone, nor would he even so much as make small talk with his neighbors. She described him as “abnormal”.

Sounds like a hardcore loner, someone with a seriously antisocial personality.

The wingnut problem isn’t confined to the USA, of course - as this story illustrates.

Czech Prime Minister Bohuslav Sobotka (Social Democrats, CSSD) wrote to CTK on Thursday that deputy Pavlina Nytrova does not express the CSSD’s stance and policy on homosexuals and that he wants to meet her over her statements from which the party has dissociated itself.

Sobotka wrote that intolerance and prejudices must be fought with arguments.

Nytrova made the statements on Wednesday when the Chamber of Deputies debated a draft amendment that would allow registered partners to adopt offspring of their partners.

She said homosexuals are promiscuous in their majority, have an above-average tendency towards alcoholism, have a higher rate of mental disorders than the rest of people and that they will gradually try to legalise sex with children.

On public Czech Radio, she said the homosexual lobby has been gradually taking steps to establish supremacy over the heterosexual group.

Fortunately, the Deputy Premier and Finance Minister, Andrej Babiš (whom I’m generally skeptical of) spoke up:

Andrej Babis, ANO chairman and finance minister, dismissed Nytrova’s statements on Twitter as utter nonsense.

“I attended a boys’ wedding last year and I have many friends among homosexuals whom I esteem,” Babis wrote and attached a picture from the wedding.
